DAMASCUS, PA  — Seeing a need in the community, Willow Wisp Organic Farm in Damascus, PA will offer a fresh vegetable food pantry for community members, families and neighbors in need of fresh vegetables for the Thanksgiving holiday. 

Free potatoes, carrots, roots, fresh herbs, and greens (weather permitting) will be available. Farmer-owners Greg Swartz, Tannis Kowalchuk and their son Simon Kowalchuk-Swartz want to lend a hand to address food insecurity this holiday season. 

A farm stand will be set up at the farm on the Monday before Thanksgiving, November 24. The stand will be located at the Farm Arts Collective barn on the property.  Community members are welcome to come between the hours of 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. to pick up fresh produce to add to the dinner table. No registration is required. 

“If you know someone who could use a little extra help this holiday, please spread the word, or feel free to drop by and collect food for them,” Swartz said. “Willow Wisp Organic Farm wants everyone in our community to eat well this holiday season.”

Please bring your own shopping bag.

Willow Wisp Organic Farm is located at 38 Hickory Lane, Damascus, PA 18415.
